The Collections

The series is made of the 9 themes (love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control) as listed in Galatians 5:22-23 and split in 3 age groups: 4-6, 7-9, and 10-12. Each theme for each age group opens on a definition, a few Bible quotes to understand the profound meaning of the theme, then the child is invited to get a few Bible quotes on their own.
Then the theme is presented in 4 different situations the child is acquainted to in their daily lives, namely: at home, at school, in the street and with friends. And a few suggestions are made on how they can/will apply the theme to these situations.
Following that, the child is invited to note their observations of how they experienced applying the theme and close with the highlight that is the Challenge.
In their own family and/or circle of friends, the children get to choose a few persons they ask to apply the theme together for a week and report to them how it went. All those observations will be duly noted for further spiritual growth and reference.
The Fruits of the Spirit series is conceived to emphasize compassion, unity and togetherness as the families and close friends get involved in guiding the spiritual growth and building the faith of their little one. It is meant to be a pleasant, rich and fulfilling walk in the wealthy places of our Lord.
I am a Sunday School teacher in my church, the Pentecost International Worship Centre in Den Haag. The honour and privilege to guide and teach our little ones in the discovery and knowledge of our Lord Jesus inspired me these series.
Hope you think the same way too,
